Publisher's Description

More Creative Mission contains an exciting mix of 50 easy-to-run outreach ideas for community-minded churches to use, whatever the season or celebration and with groups of any size. Some of the ideas follow the liturgical and seasonal calendar, whilst others can be used at any time.

Alongside four special activity events-one for each season-there is an extensive collection of fun and thought-provoking ideas covering every month of the year. Some of the ideas are based in church; some for the church family to take into the wider community or local schools and pre-school groups; some to involve the wider community in the celebration of key events; others designed to promote social action by campaigning or fundraising for specific needs within the community or overseas.

All the ideas are designed to appeal to children as well as adults, but many can also be used if there are few or no children in the church family.

As with Creative Mission, the suggestions are offered for both traditional churches and Fresh Expressions of church to select those that will work best for them and the community they serve.
